Njengoba eneminyaka engaphezu kwengu-25 yesipiliyoni ekudaleni nasekukhangiseni imikhumbi yasolwandle eyenziwe ngokwezifiso, uRob Innes usanda kwethula iJet Shark . Le mikhumbi engaphansi komhlaba enezihlalo ezine imema abasebenzisi ukuthi bazicwilise ekuhlangenwe nakho kwangempela kokuntywila ngaphansi kwamanzi, njengokungathi bangoshaka ohamba ngesivinini esingaphezu kwamakhilomitha angu-70 ngehora. Yisikebhe sokuzijabulisa esenzelwe ukuvumela abasebenzisi ukuthi babone ukunyakaza koshaka omkhulu omhlophe.
Ngokuyisisekelo, i-Jet Shark iyisikebhe esisheshayo esisebenza kahle kakhulu esinomklamo ofana noshaka. Ngenxa yobuchwepheshe obusetshenziswa kulo mkhumbi omusha, ingalingisa ukunyakaza kwalezi zinhlanzi , isebenzisa ukusunduza phezulu noma ukuhamba ngaphansi kwamanzi. Ngaphandle kokuba yindlela yokuzijabulisa, lo mkhumbi ungasetshenziswa futhi njengesikebhe sendabuko ezinsukwini ezinelanga , neminyango yawo emibili enamaphiko e-gull ivulekile ngokuphelele.
Sithuthukise isayensi eqanjiwe ecwiliswa emanzini; hlangana noJet Shark
Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, zonke izinhlobo zezikebhe zokuzijabulisa ziye zathandwa ngenxa yokuthuthukiswa kanye nokuhlelwa kwemishini kagesi. Lokhu kuholele ekubusweni kobuchwepheshe bebhethri kagesi ngendlela yentando yeningi okuphawulekayo, ubuchwepheshe obuye bamukelwa yizinkampani eziningi emhlabeni jikelele. Omunye wabo kwakunguRob Innes , umLondon onolwazi olungaphezu kweminyaka engama-25 ekudaleni nasekukhangiseni izikebhe ezenziwe ngokwezifiso ngokugcwele.
Muva nje i-Innes iveze umkhumbi ongakwazi ukucwiliswa emanzini owakhelwe umkhumbi wokuzijabulisa, ohlinzeka ngolwazi oluyingqayizivele lokucwila ngaphansi kwamanzi esikebheni esikhulu, esikhululekile, nesisebenziseka kalula. Lo mkhumbi, obizwa ngokuthi i-Jet Shark , uyakwazi ukulingisa ukunyakaza koshaka omhlophe omkhulu ngenxa yobuchwepheshe bawo obuthuthukisiwe.
Ngomklamo wawo omangalisayo, lo mkhumbi ubonisa ngokucacile umgomo wawo omkhulu wokulingisa ukubukeka koshaka. Lokhu kufezwa ngochungechunge lobuchwepheshe nezinqubo ezikwazi ukulingisa ukunyakaza kwalezi zinhlanzi , kokubili ngaphansi kwamanzi kanye nangokuqhutshwa ezikusebenzisayo ukuze zikhuphuke. Ngakho-ke, nakuba kungase kufane nomqondo wakudala we-orca, lo modeli omusha uphule ngempela isikhunta maqondana nokulingisa umzimba.
Uma ubheka ngaphandle, i-Jet Shark ibonakala iyisikebhe esincane esiyisibonelo esingathwala abantu abangafika kwabane . Inesikebhe esakhelwe ukumelana nengcindezi nesisindo, sithuthukisa ukusebenza kwaso ngaphandle kokuphazamisa umklamo waso, okwenza sibe yisikebhe esingacwiliswa kancane. Lokhu kuyivumela ukuthi ichithe isikhathi sayo esiningi ihamba phezu kwamanzi.
Ngaphakathi, isikebhe esisha sikaRob Innes sichazwa njengesinenjini evamile yokushisa yangaphakathi . Lokhu kusalokhu kuwubuchwepheshe obuthakazelisayo embonini yezikebhe ngenxa yokuthembela kwayo kumafutha angaphansi komhlaba. Ngenxa yalokho, unjiniyela wakhetha injini ye-Kodiak Marine 6.2L V8, ekwazi ukukhiqiza amandla afinyelela ku-420 hp.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngenxa yokufakwa kochungechunge lwama-turbine, i-Jet Shark ifinyelela isivinini esingamakhilomitha angama-72 ngehora uma icwiliswa emanzini cishe ngamamitha ama-2 . Ngaphezu kwalokho, lo mkhumbi unezilawuli ze-electro-hydraulic , ezidingekayo ekusebenzeni kwendiza enkulu yokuntywila.
Ngenxa yalokhu, i-Jet Shark ingalawulwa kalula ngaphansi kwamanzi kusetshenziswa ama-lifti angemuva kanye ne-thrust vectoring yenjini ye-jet. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-snorkel/ithubhu lekhamera lihlala lingaphezu kwamanzi, kuyilapho i-snorkel icwila kuphela ekujuleni kwamamitha ama-5. Ngakho-ke, iphephile kakhulu ngoba uma i-snorkel ilahlekelwa amandla nganoma yisiphi isizathu, ingavela ngokushesha.
Kuthiwa iJet Shark inomthamo ophindwe kathathu kuneSeabreacher enezihlalo ezimbili.
Ngokuphathelene nokuzijabulisa ngolwazi, umthuthukisi uvumela abagibeli noma abasebenzisi bemikhumbi ukuthi balawule izibambo ngezikrini eziningana ezitholakalayo . Lesi sici sibonisa ngokusobala ukuthi siyindlela yokuhamba eyenzelwe ukuzijabulisa nokuzijabulisa. Akungabazeki ukuthi siwumkhiqizo wokuzijabulisa ongafani nanoma yini ebonwe ngaphambili emhlabeni, odonsa ukunaka kwabantu ngokunikeza ulwazi oluyingqayizivele nolujabulisayo emkhakheni wezokudoba emanzini.
Nakuba imininingwane mayelana nentuthuko nokusebenza kwayo isinikeziwe, inkampani ayikakadaluli izindleko zayo. Ngakho-ke, umkhawulo wayo omkhulu uhlobene nentengo, kodwa kulindeleke ukuthi ibize phakathi kuka-€200.000 no-€300.000.
